Revenge

"This aura… and that Dark Spirit… Vale?" Faith asked in astonishment as she recognized Vale's presence.

As a Half-Spirit, she had a keen sense of the existence of Dark Spirits.

Since Vale had Yvaine, a Dark Spirit living in his Shadow, Faith could easily remember him.

"Yes, Manager Faith. It's me, Vale. I'm surprised to see you here." Vale answered as he got up to greet the Manager of the Contribution Points Exchange Hall, Faith.

Faith wryly smiled when she heard him and replied. "The Academy was already in ruins. It was destroyed by the Holy Arts Faction's Alliance. I'm no longer the Manager of the Exchange Hall."

Vale couldn't help but feel gloomy after hearing this. Even though he already knew that the Academy was attacked and the war between the Dark Arts Faction and Holy Arts Faction was ongoing, he still hoped that the Academy had survived.

After all, he had studied at the Vermont Academy for the last four years.
